The Official non-auto Image thread

This is a discussion on The Official non-auto Image thread within Shifting gears, part of the Around the Corner category; Looks like some natural smoke around it. Reminds me of a horror movie scene !!...

@Clevermax and Shajufx - Thanks a lot!! Well it's not actually smoke, I was hiding behind a flimsy one-ply wire mesh, and had just about managed to thrust my lens in the opening in between in a way that it did get into the frame, but got diffused in the process..

Here where I stay, the sun will be covered by the lunar shadow upto 84%. Then there could be a cloud cover due to the monsoon season. Going above the cloud cover at 40000 Feet is going to cost Rs.79000/-

In India the totality duration at its max is for 3 min & 47 sec. If only I could manage leave, then I had plans to go to Varanasi - it would've killed two birds with a stone; Total eclipse & visit to my native place.

Do you live somewhere in the path of totality, for this eclipse? that is North & North-east India... If you're in Gurgaon, you're going to see a partial eclipse only.
